Early on against Purdue, things looked to be a little off for the Ohio State football team. It didn't take long for fans to notice that standout wide receiver Carnell Tate, a future first-round pick, was nowhere to be seen on the field for the first offensive drive.
Then, even more eyebrows were raised when Tate wasn't on the field for the second or third drives either. Just what in the world is going on? Moments ago, Big Ten Network sideline reporter Brooke Fletcher cleared things up, saying Tate was 'a little tight during warmups' and that the staff is being cautious.
